Phoenix: Marshmallow Smoothie

You know those days when you wish that everything would just shut up and not go crazy on you? Well, today was one of those days for the 'fearless leader' of the Titan's Alpha. But it wasn't so much that she wanted her friends to 'Shut Up,' per say, it was more that she wanted there to be less craziness in the tower.

There were socks all through the common room – Zeru's, no doubt, - and two of the males were shouting at each other over a battle of the gamers, whilst the third male watched over them, laughing as they swore at one-another.

The only other female, 'And clean,' Phoenix thought bitterly, titan was locked up in her room, probably freezing people from her window. Laughing at the image of her friend pointing her finger and making people halt on the street, the teen shook her hair out, a fan of spiky red and black (a cross between her mother and father's hair, all natural!) escaping it as she walked into the kitchen in an attempt to get away from her hyper male teammates.

Rubbing her hands on her crimson skirt, she decided that since she couldn't fight the boys' loud noise, she'd make herself a smoothie.

And so, the leader of the Titans set out on a mission to find some fruit. She looked through the cupboards, even the one under the sink that Zeru had announced haunted two weeks earlier because of a foul smell that was emitting from through the cracks – Phoenix found out this was actually just from one of his older socks that had been shoved there in one of his 'clean ups' – but there was no fruit. She opened the fridge to find only a moldy sandwich, and pulled a face.

"Aren't we a healthy bunch?" She muttered to herself, shaking her head as she looked at the ground, "We eat pizza for dinner every night, and forget to go grocery shopping for anything decent."

Rummaging through the cupboard, Phoenix found herself face-to-face with an unopened, fresh packet of marshmallows. It was too hard to resist, so, silently, the leader pulled them out of the cupboard, and opened them with a blade she pulled from her utility belt.

Loading some of the sweets into the blender, Phoenix dove for some milk – which she found, refreshingly – and poured some of that too, into the blender. Putting the lid on carefully, she made sure that the boys (Taiyou had left Zeru and Li to their games, to her surprise) were still occupied, and turned on the blender.

After a few minutes of careful blending, a deliciously pale pink concoction was poured into a glass, another waiting in the blender. Sticking a straw in the deliciously thick substance, Phoe smiled, about to take a sip, when a hand tapped her on the shoulder.

"You know it's not nice to keep the good food to yourself, Phoe!" Taiyou announced with a grin. How long he'd been there, Phoenix didn't know, all she knew was that he'd given her an incredible shock, popping up like that. "Can I have that second glass?"

"It's not my fault that there was no fruit, and I had to have something to drink!" Phoenix retorted tartly, a grin gracing her own features, although her eyes were hidden behind her mask, you could almost catch the sparkle that shone in them as she produced a glass from the cupboard and obligingly poured the remains of the sugary drink into said cup.

Laughing, the two broke into conversation, random subjects popping up now and then, as they stood in the kitchen of the T-Tower, drinking Marshmallow Smoothies. As they finished the drinks, Phoenix grinned, reaching over to take his glass as he did the same. Their hands met mid-air, and Phoe quickly pulled hers back, feeling heat rise in her cheeks.

She saw that Taiyou too had begun to blush, and took his glass, turning around and dropping them in the sink. As she slowly moved back around to face him, she saw a mischievous grin adorning his lips, and she was suddenly scared. Why did that impish look frighten her?

She suddenly knew why, squealing as a barrage of marshmallows were thrown at her. She ducked, catching a few of them and running to hide behind the refrigerator door. She tossed one back, which he caught between his teeth, and she giggled.

This war of the marshmallows continued for a few minutes, until Phoenix emerged from the fridge, hands above her head, "I call peace!" She cried, trying not to cry from laughing so much. She walked closer to Taiyou, and he too stepped forward.

"I," he said softly, as they had suddenly moved so that they were inches apart, "Agree." He grinned, their faces inching closer when,

"Hem hem," A grinning Zeru exclaimed from above, hovering upside down the two, "Explain."

Both teens blushed.
